Traditional balsamic vinegar in Modena

Balsamic vinegar is a tradition of Modena and it is a gourmet condiment. For all food lovers is not something to be missed.

After the town center we will then visit one or more producer of traditional balsamic vinegar. This visit include a tasting and a light lunch using balsamic vinegar.

Balsamic vinegar is made from cooked grape must and aged for a minimum of 12 years and it can go up to 24 years or more. It is slowly poured from a bigger barrel to smaller ones made from a different variety of woods. Different woods will give the vinegar its peculiar flavour. Some producers like to age the vinegar only in cherry wood or chestnut wood to give to the vinegar a truly unique flavour that you can only find here in Modena.

This is TRADITIONAL balsamic vinegar and it is not normally sold in ordinary supermarkets.

During our tour you will learn how the vinegar is made and how to distinguish it from mass produced one.
